## Resource

On this week’s episode, Ali sits down with an icon and true pioneer in the infertility space: double board-certified REI and infertility warrior, Dr. Natalie Crawford. Natalie opens up about her own journey through four pregnancy losses before welcoming her two children—and what it’s like to be on both sides of the stirrups as both doctor and patient. She shares the unique challenge of navigating infertility as someone who “knows too much,” and how that knowledge can be both empowering and overwhelming. They also talk about how Natalie has built a massive, trusted community by showing up authentically on social media, why she decided to break away and co-found her boutique clinic, Fora Fertility in Austin, Texas, and what it really took to start her own thing. Plus, Natalie shares insights from her new book, The Fertility Formula —including how to advocate for yourself in the exam room, what her patients taught her along the way, and what she wants every fertility patient to hear right now.
